[quote=Anonymous]I was completed offended by the St. Albans admissions process. My son is a terrific student -- nice, really smart, top scores -- but at Albans the whole focus seemed to be on which boys could be transformed into "St. Albans Men." It was so 1950's. No focus on developing the unique qualities of the child. I know someone whose son actually went to boarding school after a couple years at Albans because he wanted to get as far away as possible. I would never send my son to that school. We pulled the application and my son went to Sidwell instead. This may be a good fit for some boys, but I'd be careful. [/quote]
